Question:
A tank is 25 m long, 12 m wide and 6 m deep. The cost of plastering its walls and bottom at 75 paise per sq. m, is:

[A].

Rs. 456

[B].

Rs. 458

[C].

Rs. 558

[D].

Rs. 568

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Area to be plastered = [2(l + b) x h] + (l x b)
= {[2(25 + 12) x 6] + (25 x 12)} m2
= (444 + 300) m2
= 744 m2.
Cost of plastering = Rs. 744 x 75 = Rs. 558.
